Chapter 763 757: Hearing of Yang Chengcang Again? Sudden Changes Arise_1
Attack the Abyssal Demon Realm?!
Unlike the excited Demon Immortals, Jia Ren was out of place in this madness.
Others didn't pay him any mind, thinking he was just worried about the troubles the Demon Monarch might bring.
"Let me make this clear, all Daoist friends must join this war."
"Anyone who dares to flee, the Corpse Collector will take away your power of the Bizarre Principle," the Lord of the Bizarre Hall reminded with a chilly tone.
The Corpse Collector?
Upon hearing this, faces turned to expressions of fear— the Corpse Collector was no ordinary being to them.
"The Abyssal Demon Realm has already had a Daluo Golden Immortal submit to the Bizarre Path. It won't be long before it becomes a Bizarre territory just like the Black Death Demon Realm. How could there be a war?"
As high-ranking members of various forces, Demon Monarchs knew many things unknown to ordinary Bizarre Immortals.
The Hall Master opened his mouth and used an unknown method to communicate with the five Demon Monarchs secretly, not wanting the ordinary Bizarre Immortals to catch wind of the intelligence.
Jia Ren quietly utilized the Linghuan True Heart to eavesdrop on the information.
The communication method of the other side was extraordinary, only yielding bits and pieces of news.
"This lord...you...not much, Yang Chengcang...Dao Ancestor..."
The message was fragmented, difficult to piece together into a coherent whole.
Yang Chengcang?
Just as the name rose in Jia Ren's mind, he thought of something else, and immediately dismissed such similar thoughts.
He had heard of Yang Chengcang in the Lower Realm. Yang Chengcang had possessed a Void-Level Corpse-Eating Dao Gui, destroyed the Spirit Realm, and Mou Tianyuan had used a treasure of the Immortal Realm to send him there.
Since then, there had been no trace of him.
Never had he heard the name mentioned since entering the Immortal Realm.
He had thought the other was dealt with by an Immortal Realm or Bizarre Path power, reduced to dust of history, yet today, the man's name resurfaces.
In the Lower Realm, Yang Chengcang, as a Corpse-Eating Dao Gui, had devoured numerous Bizarre Demons. It was unknown how many bizarre powers he now controlled.
This man had lived for more than one hundred thousand years in the Immortal Realm; his Realm was not low, definitely above that of Zhuang Baoxiang.
The exchanges between several Bizarre Demon Lords alluded to Yang Chengcang, suggesting that he might be a powerhouse at the Trickster Great Luo Golden Immortal level.
Could this war be because of Yang Chengcang?
Upon closer thought, it wasn't out of the question.
Corpse-Eating Dao Gui were different from ordinary Bizarre Demons; they were born capable of devouring and plundering the powers of other Bizarre creatures, and both other Bizarre Demons and Dao Gui were food for the Corpse-Eating Dao Gui.
It is not surprising for internecine conflict to occur within the Bizarre Path.
After the great changes in the world, the Bizarre Path had become the main protagonist of heaven and earth. Many bizarre seals in the Lower Realm were incomplete, their strength still surpassing that of the Immortal, Demon, and Monster paths.
Without any single authority dominating, the chaos of the Bizarre Path has contributed to its inability to eradicate other cultivation paths.
Once he had killed the Devil Monarch of Book Cunning Hall and taken the demon soul, he would be able to understand the corresponding intelligence.
Jia Ren pondered on his escape and how to feign weakness to the enemy, giving them the impression they held the winning hand, before suddenly turning the tables.
And not give him a chance to detonate the Book Bizarre Token.
The communications among the Bizarre Demon Lords ceased, each furrowing their brows in worry.
"Let's depart!" the Lord of the Bizarre Hall said indifferently.
BUZZ!
The great hall trembled and then started to rise, flying towards the northeast.
Everyone stabilized their stance, planting their feet into the depths of the hall as if they had taken root.
"This Lord shall give you fellow Daoists a ride for this part of the journey."
Jia Ren: ???
He was given no chance to escape.
All his plans turned to nothing.
"Daoist friend, you are fortunate—this war has saved your life once more, granting you some extra time to live," a deep voice echoed as a Purple Robe Bizarre True Immortal beside Jia Ren remarked meaningfully.
Were it not for this war, offending a Bizarre Demon Lord meant a certain death upon leaving the hall.
With the war impending, perhaps this person could live a bit longer.
Jia Ren's expression was dark as water, with only two thoughts rising in his heart.
One was to join the others in the war between the Black Death Demon God and the Abyssal Demon Realm, where Daluo Golden Immortal level powerhouses were destined to participate.
His strength was of no advantage in a conflict at this level, and there was the risk of falling; he had no interest in becoming cannon fodder.
Break out of the encirclement?
With the Lord of the Bizarre Hall and the five Bizarre Demon Lords, six peerless powerhouses taking action together, he had no chance of victory.
He could only run at best.
The opportunity of the Deceiving Scripture Hall seemed to have slipped by.
The safety of his life was paramount. He'd find a way to obtain the cultivation technique later when encountering someone from the Deceiving Scripture Hall.
With that thought, Jia Ren quietly moved towards the exit of the palace, ready to flee the scene.
A Bizarre Demon Lord whose lifespan wasn't much raised his voice, "This lord has a little external affair to handle, no need for the Hall Master's escort. I can make my own way."
"Daoist Wu, you can't even wait for this short journey?"
"Can't wait to notify the Donghua Immortal Domain, can you?"
All five Demon Monarchs turned their heads to stare at this person, their gazes icy cold.
Sweat beads continuously formed on the forehead of the white-haired old man. Forcing a smile he said, "Why would my Daoist friends jest at the expense of this old Daoist."
Seeing their unchanging expressions, his face gradually turned cold. "You deliberately slander this lord, truly thinking me old and feeble to be bullied?!"
His white hair seemed to come to life, turning into white needle-like strands, penetrating the four Bizarre Demon Lords.
The black hair from the negotiation table also seemed to come to life as it clashed with the white hair, becoming entangled with each other.
Black entwined with white, difficult to separate.
"This lord will expose your true form!"
Lord Lu's eyes intermingled red and black, shooting out a beam of blended black and red light. Taking advantage of the entanglement of the two types of Hair Bizarre, it violently struck the person.
The white-haired elder switched positions immediately but felt his body shift direction, unintentionally colliding with the intertwining beam of black and red.
BOOM!
A white whisk flew out from inside the white-haired elder, its tail-end strands deeply embedding themselves into the person's body.
The white-haired elder no longer appeared old but transformed into a slim individual exuding dense Immortal Spiritual Qi.
"The Three Thousand White Hair Gui Dust flowing from this hall is already known for its effect as a Superior Grade Guile Immortal Artifact. You really thought you could deceive me!"
The slim man, seeing his identity exposed, stopped hiding and let the Power of Laws flow like a tide.
"Immortal Path Divine Power: Drowning Realm!"
The Immortal Path Divine Power, working in conjunction with the deployed Law Spirit Domain, formed a vast volume of Profound Water submerging the hall with astonishing speed.
The grey-robed elder condensed into a figure made of purely resentful Bizarre Qi, grabbing at the Immortal Monarch through the air.
A curtain of Profound Water and a layer of profound black water armor firmly guarded him.
"Death Resentment Bizarre Hand!"
The hand formed from Resent Bizarre Qi reached out of nowhere, as if grabbing something.
The Slim Immortal Monarch's Immortal Soul emerged, and an arm exuding Bizarre Qi seized the Immortal Soul, forcibly extracting it from the body.
Threads of resentful Bizarre Qi invaded the Immortal Soul, threatening to corrupt it.
Before the Bizarre Hand could extract it fully, the flowing black water shone with a layer of white, sacred light, granting the Profound Water a strange power.
The hand of resentment seemed to touch a strong acid, emitting billows of gray smoke, disintegrating in the Profound Water before it could retract.
"Shadow Bizarre Kill!"
The Slim Immortal Monarch's shadow came to life, exploding from behind.
Armor shards of Profound Water splashed around, revealing a slight flaw, and the Bizarre Shadow penetrated it, its remaining bizarre power worming inside.
BOOM!
The power of the Shadow Bizarre exploded within, sounding like muffled thunder.
The Slim Immortal Monarch coughed up blood incessantly, his blood showing fragments of shattered black and red organs.
The Profound Water Armor restored itself to its original state; he took out an Elixir exuding Immortal Qi and swallowed it.
No sooner had the Elixir reached his mouth than he sensed something amiss and flung it away as if electrocuted.
The Elixir, radiating a sacred aura, fell onto the Profound Water Armor and turned into writhing purple-black poisonous insects.
An unseen Bizarre Demon Lord had made a move, surreptitiously switching things out.
Had it not been for the Immortal Path Divine Power that forewarned of dangers, he would have been unwittingly ensnared.
Outnumbered one to five, he was wearing thin from constant resistance.
The life-saving Elixir had been swapped, and Bizarre Qi wreaked havoc inside his body. It was not safe to stay here long; he needed to hurry back with the news.
The Law Spirit Domain transformed into a profound black great axe, its blade tinged with a hint of sacred aura, and slashed toward the grand hall's entrance.
The formation's restrictions shattered. The guardians made of black hair and corpse skin tore open a gap, and he transformed into a black Escape Light, fleeing the scene.
"Thinking of leaving this hall, you should ask whether I agree."
The Master of the Bizarre Hall in a black hood reached out and grabbed, producing a crooked, bone-like spear that appeared in his palm.
The Bone Spear surged with a deathly white aura, bearing some resemblance to the Bone Hiding Power that proved strength by Dao.
He stretched his withered palm and hurled it fiercely forward.
The spear, as if dismissing space itself, vanished into thin air, entering the surging Profound Black Drowning Realm.
BOOM!
A figure fell like a meteor to the earth, leaving behind a human-shaped crater.
The Profound Drowning Water receded like the tide, revealing only the silhouette pinned to the ground by the Bone Spear.
The Immortal Power seemed sealed by the Bone Spear, with the Power of Xuan Ming Law struggling against the Bone Spear's power and unable to resolve the issue promptly.
"Double the Water Realm!"
BOOM!
The Slim Immortal Monarch's eyes flashed with a hint of determination as he suddenly activated his Dantian Cave Heaven, causing a violent explosion.
His body blew apart, transforming into roaring black waters that surged ceaselessly.
The Master of the Bizarre Hall waved one hand, drawing the Bone Spear back into his palm, where it disappeared into his body.
The four Bizarre Demon Lords deployed their Pupil Class Divine Abilities, searching through the black waters for any sign of their quarry.
Since no Power of Laws ascended to heaven, it meant that the person had not perished.
What a chance!
Jia Ren quietly approached the grand hall's exit, ready to tear through the formation there and turn into a Golden-Winged Peng Bird to escape.
The Law of Extreme Speed and Space Law's Great Thousand Shifting Escape were both powerful means to escape from the enemy's grasp.
Should a Daluo Golden Immortal Realm adversary catch up, resorting to Spatial Banishment, a path to survival remained.
As the plan was about to be implemented, trouble arose among the five Demon Monarchs.
Jia Ren hid in a corner, avoiding the major conflict between Demon Monarchs, and couldn't help but smile involuntarily.
Now was the best time to flee.
Without hesitating, he drove his Escape Light towards the gap in the formation torn by the Slim Immortal Monarch, planning to flee.
Just then, a Bizarre Golden Immortal obstructed Jia Ren's sole path forward.
"Lord Lu takes an interest in you, better behave and stay here."
He wasn't familiar with Lord Lu, but stopping a True Immortal here might curry favor with the Demon Monarch, a no-cost benefit.
The True Demon in Purple Robes beside Jia Ren was somewhat annoyed, internally cursing their slow action and missing the chance to garner the Demon Monarch's favor.
BOOM!
Blood rained down from the sky, splashing onto the face of the True Demon in Purple Robes. He could only stand still in shock with just a glance.
Jia Ren calmly retracted his fist, his expression serene as though he'd just swatted an annoying fly.
He had just punched a Bizarre Golden Immortal to death?!
